Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit Inspection
7035 E. Sopris Creek Road (1977 OWTS)
Pitkin County, Colorado
Mr. Wilke,
As requested, CBO Inc. performed an Onsite Wastewater Treatment System (OWTS) Use Permit
inspection at 703:5 E. Sopris Creek Road, Snowmass, Colorado on June 30, 2015. The legal description
of the property is Lot 2, Capitol and Elk Creek Subdivision.
There are two residences on the property. The subject OWTS serves one bedroom and the kitchen in
the main house and the caretaker dwelling unit (CDU), which has one bedroom.
The permit and record drawing was provided by Pitkin County Environmental Health Department (Parcel
ID #2645-032-02-002). Pitkin County Health Department Permit Number 77074 documents this OWTS.
The subject OWTS consists of one 1000 -gallon, two-compartment concrete septic tank followed by a
mounded, lined, evapo-transpiration (ET) pipe and gravel bed, measuring 15'x 50'.
The septic tank is located to the north of the main residence and to the southwest of the CDU. The
septic tank lids were both accessible from grade. There was approximately 5 -feet of risers, brining the
lids to grade. Risers were showing some signs of deterioration. One of the lids had deteriorated and
was replaced by D&D Septic (invoice enclosed). The septic tank was pumped by B&R Septic at the
time of the inspection. Both inlet and outlet tees were visible from the manhole lids (although difficult to
see in photos below). During pumping, there was backflow into the septic tank. As this system was
designed to hold water (a lined ET bed), backflow from the soil treatment area (STA) would not be
considered a sign of failure.
We typically recommend installation of an effluent filter, the outlet tee is not entirely accessible from the
manhole and the tee would need to be extended further into the septic tank. The excavation and cost of
this work may not be warranted in this case.
The STA covered with high grasses. We walked the entire area during the inspection and no inspection
ports were located. The entire area was dry and there signs of surface saturation and no indication of
failure at the time of the inspection.
This evaluation is not a guarantee of future system performance. This inspection is good for one year.

Disclaimer: This inspection is intended only as an evaluation of the present condition of the OWTS
based upon what was observed and the Licensed Inspector's expertise in onsite wastewater technology.
The inspector has not been retained to warrant or guarantee the property functioning of the system for
any period of time in the future. Because of numerous factors which may affect the operation of an
OWTS, as well as the inability of the Inspector to supervise or monitor the use or maintenance of this
OWTS, this report shall not be construed as a warranty by the Inspector that the system will function
properly for any particular prospective buyer, and the Inspector disclaims any warranty, either expressed
or implied, arising from the inspection of the OWTS or this report. The evaluation does not ascertain the
impact the system is having on groundwater.
